This book describes the entire coast and beaches and barrier
systems of Australia. It covers the coastal processes and systems
that form and impact Australia's 30.000 km coast, 12.000 beaches
and 2750 barrier systems. These processes include geology,
geomorphology, climate, waves, tides, currents, sediment supply, as
well as coastal ecosystems. The coast is divided into tropical
northern and southern temperate provinces, within which are seven
divisions, 23 regions and 354 coastal sediment compartments each of
which is described in detail in the 34 chapters. Within these
systems are the full range of wave through tide-dominated beaches
and barriers ranging from cheniers to massive transgressive dune
systems together with a range of onshore and longshore sand
transport systems. This is an up to date reference for the entire
coast, its present condition and likely responses to the impacts of
climate change.
